Configuring BIMS Access Mode 799Configuring BIMSAccess ModeEnabling BIMS Device toAccess BIMS Centerupon Power-onAfter you make the following configuration, the BIMS device can access the BIMScenter after it is powered on and initialized.n If you disable the above access function on the device, the device will not send amessage to the BIMS center after the device is restarted. Therefore, the BIMScenter cannot detect that the device is restarted and still display the message,indicating that it is waiting for restart of the device.Configuring Interval forAccessing the BIMSCenterYou can configure the BIMS device to access the BIMS center at regular intervals.When the BIMS device is configured with an access interval different than the oneset at the BIMS center, it obtains and uses the setting on the BIMS center for lateraccesses. The likelihood exists that this interval is obtained by multiple BIMSdevices. This, however, does not result in excessive concurrent accesses, becausethe BIMS center has a tuning mechanism to handle the situation.Accessing the BIMSCenter at a SpecifiedTimeYou can configure the BIMS device to access the BIMS center at a specified timeand if desired, at regular intervals from then on during a specified period.Table 633 Enable BIMS device to access BIMS center upon power-onOperation Command DescriptionEnter system view system-view -Enable BIMS device to accessBIMS center upon power-onbims boot request OptionalBy default, if the BIMS isenabled on the device, thedevice can access the BIMScenter immediately uponpower-on.Table 634 Configure the BIMS device to access the BIMS center at regular intervalsOperation Command DescriptionEnter system view system-view -Configure the interval foraccessing the BIMS centerbims interval number OptionalBy default, no BIMS centeraccessing interval is set.Table 635 Configure the device to access the BIMS center at a specified timeOperation Command DescriptionEnter system view system-view -Configure the BIMS device toaccess the BIMS center at thespecified timeIf desired, configure the device toaccess the BIMS center from thenon at regular intervals during aspecified periodbims specify-timestart-time [ [ end-time ]period numberdays ]OptionalBy default, no specific timethat the BIMS deviceaccesses the BIMS center isconfigured.
